Rod End Bearing Corrosion

In a previous life I lived in central FL where I had stored my bearings...fast forward a few years back in a dry climate and this is what I have found....damage had already been done. Question: Is this corrosion on the threads too excessive? My assumption is yes and to order the new bearings but wanted to get the gallery opinion....use or get new for the piece of mind?

I am not commenting on the rod ends but I believe the standard rod ends from Van's are made by Aurora. They are very susceptible to corrosion. Keep them lubed. I use LPS1 about once a week. Probably overkill.

Those are shot! Send them to me for immediate disposal!

Seriously, your call, but I wouldn't hesitate to use them.
